Goals

SMART: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant,Time


What does your pathway to your goals look like?


Be specific for effective planning, and to remove ambiguity regarding whether you hit your goals. What training are you going to do? Have you written your goals down, shared with a friend, made yourself accountable? Make a vision board, write a note to stick on the fridge. Be excited, focused.

Make measurable goals. Have marker points along the way, set milestones, and track your progress. Celebrate your wins, learn from your setbacks and mistakes. Allow for steps back as well as forward. Success isn’t always in a straight line.


Is your goal Achievable relative to your current fitness level? Consider the details of your goals. How are you going to get there? Ie if you’re an elderly lady with osteoporosis, being a heavy weight lifter is not so achievable! Likewise, if you’re recovering from an ankle injury, running a marathon in a few months is also not really achievable.



Make your goals relevant to you, taking in to consideration your health and fitness abilities and needs. How practical, sensible is this goal? Do you want to run up Everest, or a challenging hill in local countryside?


How much time is needed to reach your goals? How long is your path? How often are you going to train? Keep goals reasonable and attainable.

Some journeys are slow and meandering, others are full on uphill, others with boulders and muddy patches along the way. You are all wonderfully unique, your goals personal and special to you. No path is better or worse than the other. It’s about what works best for you at a particular time in your life.


Be a warrior, be confident, be good to yourself. Enjoy the process, have fun….… and keep going!
